Did You Know

That the Galarian birds are based on the Morrigan. A trio of(or just one) goddesse(s) of war, fate and death.

Moltres- Badb who's known for taking the form of a crow(hence the black color). She strikes fear and confusion in battle, and foreshadows death prior to battle(could explain Moltres aura wearing down people's spirit). She's also compared to banshees cause of her wail she does when announcing a notable person's death(why it's cackling in the art)

Zapdos- Macha is a sovereignty goddess(meaning she's associated with a location) and represents war and stuff like land, fertility, and horses(hence why Zapdos is now a fighting type running bird, with a competitive nature). She's also described as Raven of the raids in some myths were she's Nemed's wife. In some legends her full name is Macha Mong Ruad, which means red hair(possibly why Zapdos is now orange

Articuno- Nemain is the goddess of the frenzied havoc of war. In one epic Tain Bo Cuailnge Nemain gathered armies to attack them(could explain why it uses it's psychic powers to freeze opponents before attacking, and it's callous nature). Nemain also shares a lot of similarities with Badb(harbingers of doom, same husband). This could explain Articuno psychic type as it references Badb ability to fortell death and confuse opponents.

The Morrigan was also said to be one war goddess with the ability to transform into animals to aid in battle(most notable one being a crow), and represents goddesses role as guardians of land(also probably why they migrate to and fight over the Dynamax tree)

In fact the mysterious nature on if the Galarian birds are regional variants or not could be based on the Morrigan's many myth with contradicting details as stated, but not limited to: Nemain not being the concrete third goddess(some sources say it's a goddess named Anand or Fea), or Macha's many husbands

But the possible reason why their regional variants believed to not actually be regional forms could be because the Morrigan are also named as sisters of a trio of land goddesses under different names being: Eriu, Banba, and Fodla. Despite both being trio of goddesses their connections state their separate

This also explains their typings, as the Kantonian birds are contextualized as the land goddesses given their elemental types. Whereas the Galarian birds types represents (the) Morrigan('s) behaviors in battle. With them being flying type birds symbolizing their connections/similarities despite being recognized as different groups

Also if anyone wants to know the pronunciation of the goddesses names from what I gathered it's Bive, Mock-Ah, Ney-Von

I'll always find it weird having Professor Cerise in Journeys and not having the Professor for the series where Ash literally travels the globe be Professor Willow from GO.

Could've had the GO Leaders with the Galarian Birds too

The Galarian birds ideas. They are either:

Literally not a variant of the Kantonian at all and that the Galar people just thought they were lmao. Literally just different BirdsI think this is what is implied on canon. ( The dex entries say they are called Articuno Zapdos and Moltres, but never said that they are literally that)

Going based on the above this could either mean that they were just very very powerful and very very rare pokemon that happens to look like the Legendary Birds OR Lugia decided to make another trio, which I find hilarious.

Another explanation for the Galarian Birds is that they are literally variants of the Kantonian ones. No one knows if it's true or not though 😂.

For whatever reason these Galarian Birds changed drastically since first arriving in Galar, and thus when they reproduce, they ended up to how they are in modern times.
